GIVE AWAY

I took this photo, this weekend. I went downtown and snapped some photos Sunday mid morning. It was peaceful and a great time for reflection. I haven't had an Art Date in a couple of months. We all need, to find
ways to inspire our creativity. Art, books, movies, music, photo and nature usually do this for me. I guess I could also include long walk, cycling and having fun with my family. My give away involves some books, that have inspired me. I have extras, I bought Squam Art book(Journal one) and then won one. I was going through my stash and decided it was time to pass it on. It is a gem, as is "Simply Abundance" a Daybook of Comfort n' Joy. I also will include a few extra special touches~ Guys don't be shy, you can always pass it on to your wife, loved one, girlfriend, Mom, and, or sister. I hope the sun is shining where you are. It was 71 here yesterday and today's high, 37. We are in for a roller coaster week, here in North Carolina. I figured this is a perfect time of year, to pass on some cheer. Leave me a comment and I'll put your name in my hat. The drawing will be, March lst. Good Luck!

Here are a few more pics, signs that spring is slowly starting to make it's presence known.

I keep meaning to go out and take some pictures, but I haven't yet. It's been ridiculously chilly for L.A. I know it's really not that cold compared to other places, but it just seems to be a chill in the house that doesn't go away.I've even broken out my long johns--ridiculous.

Awesome giveaway Ellie! Glad you had a little time to enjoy your surroundings. Hope the weather doesn't get too crazy. Here in Oregon today we had sunshine, then rain, then snow/rain mixed, sunshine again, rain...You never know what you're gonna get here. Happy Week to you!♥Jenny

X is for X-tra.
Today, I am going to share some X-tra insight. I was going to use the post for P and somehow I didn't. I struggle with meditation. These days sitting and quieting my mind-is difficult. My thyroid is hyper right now-when this happens-I am accused of having ADD. I am fine, when my thyroid levels are my normal. Stress usually throws me off track and last month, when my son was seriously ill-I knew it would likely alter my levels. It did.
My doctor is from India, so I asked him a lot of questions-about meditation. It all started the day I wore my prayer beads. He asked me, "Do you meditate?" Of course I mentioned-I tried. My daughter gave me the beads-as a gift. She tries to meditate and we discussed how these beads are like rosary beads and prayers. My doctor explained to me-that meditation is a process-which takes time. You are unfolding the layers of the mind and releasing thoughts. When he said this-I thought of the petals of …

I had a migraine all day-yesterday. Finally, gave in to BC powder for relief, when I found out my son and his hound, Wade would be coming over to stay for three days. The apartment below him had water damage and it is so, bad-it is a miracle my son's tub didn't fall through the floor. The wedding is on May 4th-may the fourth/force be with you. I still have the wedding flowers to finish. The bride will be by soon to hopeful approve. I texted her photos-so, far so good. It takes 25 paper petals to make one rose. I also have to hem my son's suit pants. Augh~
But, damn it
I have to finish~ Y is for Yoga.
I am no bendy Barbie.
Did you know there is a Yoga Barbie~
I love the benefits of yoga.
The calmness I feel after a work out and it is the only exercise one can do that massages your internal organs-kinda cool.
Seriously, the Fish pose helps your thyroid gland-the master gland of the body.
